It wasn’t that late. At least according to this ID before an episode of Super Password in May 1988 it wasn’t.

Weeters 1915 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 A "dead mall" enthusiast managed to "rescue" a cache of VHS tapes from the management offices of Milwaukee's abandoned Northridge Mall, among which was an entire episode of PM Magazine from WISN, circa Christmas Eve 1981: Featuring all the original commercials, including a holiday-themed "My mom dressed me funny because of John Malan" and the holiday version of "Hello Milwaukee". 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/324/#findComment-233054 Share on other sites More sharing options...

10Viewer 334 Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 So it looks like KMTV changed from "News 3" to "NewsCenter 3" in 1979 but I was not expecting an updated version of their 1977 theme. Guessing that "Tuesday A" debuted at the very end of '79. Would love to see more of that KMTV "dream team" Anybody know what happened to John McDonald after KMTV? Looks like he was gone by the end of 1980. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/324/#findComment-233175 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColDayNews 438 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 (edited) 8 hours ago, SoFloTVClassics said: A treasure trove of news clips from Columbus, OH from 1996-1998 — WCMH was in the midst of a transition period from News 4 to NewsChannel 4 in the first clip. NBC had just bought them from Outlet and was tacking on the peacock and chimes in every place they could. They were still on that set as recently as 2008. I will say, I like their hybrid WNBC/WRC era — WNBC’s on air bug with WRC’s graphics. — WSYX was dead last in the late 1990s, yet they had such a quality team... Bob Hetherington, Terri Sullivan, Charlene Brown, Carol Luper... I like what Sinclair has done for WSYX over the last 20 years, especially post-NewsCentral. They’ve become like a second flagship for them. — No 10TV, save for KidsNews Network? KNN was pretty innovative for its time, though!

10Viewer 334 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 (edited) I have no idea what music WSYX was using in that 1995-98 period but I know I heard "ABC Affiliate News" package by Score Productions at some point on WSYX.
